This actually already exists and has for many years, its called paint protection film. Costs several thousand dollars depending how much coverage you want, protects from rock chips, minor scratches and dings. Also has UV inhibitors in the film to protect from sun damage as well.

Oh wow. I wonder why the same mentality is different when it comes to phones.

Probably because a $800 phone can be sufficiently protected with a $25 case, but even if you have a car worth $20k or $10k the cheapest you’d find a shop to apply that coating including the cost of material is $4k minimum.

If phone cases on average costed $200 i bet we’d see less phones with cases on them.
